Challenge 1: Finish Line

To complete this challenge, simply finish the level.

When the level starts, follow the path as it winds around the debris on the first rooftop. This area is packed with enemies, breakable objects, loose studs, and other items of interest. As you explore the path, watch out for the Brotherhood reinforcements that climb onto the rooftop.

As you approach the center of the rooftop, use Iceman’s ranged attack to extinguish the LEGO fires blocking the main path.

Follow the path down to the balcony, then destroy the LEGO “X” to reveal a Build-it. Use the Build-it to assemble a ramp and continue along the main path.

The path leads to a crumbling set of steps. Climb the steps and stand on the LEGO water puddle to create an icy bridge across the gap. Clear out any Brotherhood mutants you encounter as you continue along the main path.

There’s a Brotherhood heavy mutant waiting near the exit, and several smaller enemies appear as you enter the area. Clear out all the enemies, then search the area for any desired items.

When you’re ready, use Iceman’s ranged attacks to destroy the silver LEGO padlock to the right. Head through the open gate to finish the level.

Challenge 2: Stud Collector

To complete this challenge, you must collect over 40,000 studs before the level ends.

This level is packed with enemies and breakable objects, but there are also some very valuable loose studs to be found. Smash the debris you encounter and use Iceman’s ranged attacks to extinguish the LEGO fires to find some of the blue studs scattered throughout the level.

One of the more valuable stashes is near the crumbling steps. Use Iceman’s flight mode to reach the large hole in the side of the mansion.

Several blue studs are on a hidden balcony near the end of the level. Just before you reach the Brotherhood heavy mutant, use Iceman’s flight mode to reach the balcony below the main path. When you’re ready, fly back to the first rooftop and follow the main path toward the exit.

After you defeat the Brotherhood heavy mutant, another stash of studs appears near the end of the level.. If you’re thorough, you should complete this challenge well before you finish the level.

Challenge 3: Minikit

To complete this challenge, you must collect the minikit hidden in the level.

After you unlock Free Play for this level, revisit the map with Jean Grey. When you reach the upper path on the second rooftop, use Jean Grey’s telekinesis to assemble the bridge from the debris to the left. When the job is done, cross the bridge and continue to the end of the path.

Use Jean Grey’s telekinesis to repair the broken satellite dish at the end of the path, then wait as the dish transmits a signal.

After a moment, a jet flies by and drops a crate onto the path. Smash the crate to reveal the minikit.

Challenge 4: Brotherhood Beat

To complete this challenge, you must defeat the Brotherhood heavy mutant within the 100-second time limit.

The best way to stay ahead of the clock is to bypass the enemies and obstacles on the first rooftop. When the level starts, activate Iceman’s flight mode and head directly to the crumbling steps. Fly over the gap and follow the main path along the second rooftop.

If you like, use the extra time to charge a Super Move. Iceman’s primary Super Move is powerful enough to defeat the Brotherhood heavy mutant with a single attack. Otherwise, use standard attacks to defeat the heavy mutant within the allotted time.

Challenge 5: Excelsior!

To complete this challenge, you must find and rescue Stan Lee.

After you unlock Free Play for this level, revisit the map with Jean Grey. Stan Lee is on the first rooftop, in the patch of grass near the crumbling steps. When you find him, use Jean Grey’s telekinesis to move the toppled pillar and rescue Stan Lee.

Challenge 6: Clean Sweep

To complete this challenge, you must defeat 18 Brotherhood mutants before you finish the level.

If you stick to the main path, you should find more than enough enemies to fight. Avoid using Iceman’s flight mode to bypass obstacles, and listen for hidden enemies that climb into the area or burst through windows. Clear each area as you move through the level to ensure you complete this challenge.

Challenge 7: Combo Master

To complete this challenge, you must perform a × 10 combo.

When you find at least two enemies in a single area, use Iceman’s ranged attack to build up a ×10 combo from a safe distance.

Challenge 8: Smashing

To complete this challenge, you must destroy all eight of the silver LEGO gargoyles scattered around the level.

The silver LEGO gargoyles are scattered along the length of the map, but all of them are located on the railings that line the edge of each rooftop. Follow the main path and use Iceman’s ranged attacks to destroy each gargoyle you find. The first four gargoyles are located on the first rooftop, so make sure that you smash all of them before you cross the crumbling steps.

The fifth gargoyle is located on the small landing just across the crumbling steps.

The three remaining gargoyles are waiting along the path to the exit. Use Iceman’s ranged attacks to destroy all eight gargoyles before you finish the level.

Challenge 9: Ice Cold

To complete this challenge, you must freeze all seven LEGO water puddles scattered throughout the level.

The LEGO water puddles are located along the main path. Each time you spot one, move Iceman across the puddle to freeze it. The first puddle is near your starting location, so make sure that you freeze it before you continue along the path.

The second water puddle is near the center of the first rooftop. This puddle is hidden under a pile of rubble, so make sure that you clear the debris as you pass through this area.

Two LEGO water puddles are near the end of the first rooftop. One puddle is just before the crumbling stairs, and the other is used to create the bridge to the second rooftop.

The fifth water puddle is on the landing across the crumbling steps.

The last two water puddles are near the large window at the end of the map. Freeze all seven LEGO water puddles before you finish the level.

Challenge 10: Multi-Challenge

To complete this challenge, you must use one or more Super Moves to defeat five enemies, avoid calling on your Tag partner, and finish the level within the 100-second time limit.

Iceman’s flight mode allows you to complete the level very quickly, but you’ll need to collect enough studs to charge a Super Move or two. Rather than smash objects or battle enemies, use Iceman’s flight mode to zip around the map and collect blue studs. Grab the blue stud behind the flames in the first patch of grass, then search the damaged wall near the crumbing stairs. Continue across the gap and grab the blue studs on the landing.

When you’re ready, gather a group of Brotherhood mutants and unleash your first Super Move.

If you need to charge a second Super Move, fly down and collect the studs from hidden balcony near the Brotherhood heavy mutant. Gather the enemies that appear near the exit and unleash your Super Move to complete the related objective. Use Super Moves to defeat at least five enemies, refrain from calling on your Tag partner, and finish the level within the allotted time.
